Mango, banana and strawberry smoothie

Mango, banana and strawberry smoothie

We whip up several smoothie variations in our house but the real winner at the moment with plenty of good fruit in season is a Mango, Banana and Strawberry smoothie.  Naturally sweetened by freshly picked strawberries and thickened magically by tropical mango they really hit the spot.  After the first week at school we needed a change from bread based lunches so the kids had fun with their salad face plates.  But the real hit was the 2 glasses of smoothies each which followed.  Quite a healthy and balanced lunch really with plenty of energy for skateboard surfing!
